Abstract

Background: Road traffic accidents were a major health problem especially in low and middle incomecountries including Iraq, head injuries were found to be the most common fatal injuries during trafficaccidents that causing deaths.Objectives: to identify the relationship of road traffic injury deaths with different associated factors and tomeasure the extent of this problem.Methodology: this was a cross-sectional study included a retrospective analysis of the forensic medicinedata presented in the records of forensic medicine department for three years (2017-2019) the period neededto conduct this study started from 1st of February to the end of November,2019 . After the approval of thestudy protocol by the Babylon nursing college health ethical committee , a semi structured questionnaire wasused to collect data according to the descriptive epidemiologic model (person , place, time).Results: The road traffic accidents death rate in Babylon province was unacceptably high, the mean deathsper month due to Road Traffic Injuries was 43,8 and the mean deaths per week was11victims and the crudedeath rate =27/100000 population; Males in their productive age group were outnumbered victims to thispreventable high priority health problem. Urgent interventional plan of action including provision highquality nursing tertiary care should be started to address this growing problem using the available resourcesto promote the critical care skills among health care providers and to reduce medical errors.

Abstract

Yoghurt was manufactured by adding ferrous sulfate (T1) before heat treatment, (T2) after heat treatment,and adding ferrous chloride (T3) before heat treatment and (T4) after heat treatment as well as the controlsample separately, the physiochemical tests were performed for Yoghurt the above treatments a day aftermanufacturing and after storage for 21 days at a temperature of 5 ± 1 ° C, and our results were: There wereno significant differences in pH values after one day of manufacturing for all treatments, either duringstorage for 21 days at a temperature of 5 ± 1 ° C, a gradual decrease was observed in them, either withrespect to the percentage of total acidity (TA), it was close to all treatments of the different Yoghurt afterone day of manufacturing. either when storing, it was observed that it increased for all transactions. Theconcentrations (2.5, 5)Mm played a role in improving the physicochemical properties of Yoghurt, suchas reduced Syneresis, increased Water holding capacity, and improved viscosity and hardness comparedto other samples. As for the high concentrations (7.5, 10)Mm, it had a negative effect on the rheologicalproperties of the Yoghurt.

Middle Eastcountries had a very high rate of vitamin D inadequacy, vitamin D deficiency was associated with noncommunicable and infectious diseases.Objective : To identify the prevalence of Vitamin D level and its correlates among Iraqi people in Al-Hillacity-Babylon provinceMethods :. A cross?sectional study was conducted on a convenient sample of individuals from all age groupsand both genders who attended eight primary health care centers and individuals in Al?Hilla city\Babylonprovince\Iraq, the study period was started from May through October , 2019. A pretested questionnaire wasused for data collection , the questionnaire included information regarding socio demographic characteristicsof participants and their history of chronic diseases. The following measurements were done: level of serumvitamin D , blood pressure, blood sugar , body weight and weight and the serum of vitamin D .Results: The sample included 188 participants their mean age was 64.8 ± 17.25 years.The female to maleratio 1.7:1, More than half of participants (56%) resident in urban areas . Vitamin D mean level was (20.7ng/mL ± 14.9 SD). The vast majority (80%) of the sample have vitamin D inadequacy in which (66% havedeficiency and 14% have insufficiency), while 37 (20%) of the sample have vitamin D adequacy.A significant inverse relationship between vitamin D serum level and hypertension, type two diabetesmellitus, increase body weight.Conclusion: there was a high prevalence of vitamin D inadequacy among Iraqi people mainly in females,a significant association between low vitamin D level and hypertension, type two diabetes mellitus, andobesity.

Abstract

Background : Nerve growth factor is a member of a group of proteins called Neurotrophins (NTs), whichare necessary for growth and differentiation of neurons in both central and peripheral nervous systems. Inaddition to this essential role, NGF has been suggested to play a possible role in ovarian functions. Thus, weproposed this study to evaluate the nerve growth factor level in the follicular fluid of women with polycysticovary syndrome undergoing Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in comparison with the control group(non-polycystic women).Results : Follicular fluid nerve growth factor levels of non PCOS women were significantly higher thanthese of PCOS group (245.399 ± 63.41pg/ml vs. 149.592 ± 64.86 pg/ml), p-value =0.0001*. Also, it wassignificantly correlated negatively with oocytes number (Correlation Coefficient r= -0.431, P-value = 0.01)and positively with FSH (r=0.370, p value = 0.029).Conclusion: Nerve growth factor level in the follicular fluid of polycystic ovary syndrome women is lowerthan it in non-PCOS ones. Additionally, it correlates directly with cycle day two FSH and inversely withoocytes number.

Abstract

The present study was carried out to evaluate the activity essential oil and phenolic compounds ofThymus vulgaris, Melaleuca alternifolia and Betula pendula extracts against urinary tract infections causedby urease-producing from seven strains of bacteria Proteus mirabilis isolated from urinary tract infection.Microdilution technique has been used to evaluate antibacterial operations in sterile 96-well microtiter plates.Activity of urease and inhibition of urease assessed by indophenol test method. The results showed that M.alternifolia extract was the best antibacterial activities against all strains at 1.25 - 25 mg/ml. Also, 0.31 mg/ml of phenolic compounds and essential oil of M. alternifolia extract serves as effective dual acting 100%urease inhibitor to prevent and eliminate urease. Besides, the results of phytochemical detection show thatCoumarins, Terpenes, Alkaloids, Tannins, Flavonoids and Sesquiterpenes were present in M. alternifoliaextract, which may be have anti-urease possessing activity. Furthermore, these plants could be act as asource of antimicrobial compounds against P. mirabilis which are commonly impaired by the developmentof bladder and kidney stones.
